In Second Life we are fortunate to have a
vast genre of music to suit everyone’s taste in music.
Indie music and the indie underground
movement in Second Life, is as popular as it is in Real Life. The three genre
of music which dominates the Second Life music scene are:
- Tech/dance/trance
- Indie
- Country
Indie music is a genre of alternative rock that originated in the
United Kingdom and the United States in the 1980s. Indie bands in Real Life
such as the Artic Monkeys, Babyshambles, Beck, Kasabian and many more can be
heard spinning from the DJs in Second Life. However, you
will find a lot more underground indie groups which may not have made it main
stream but have a good following of fans.
So where do you go if you want to hear indie music in Second
Life?
Here is a list
of a few clubs in Second Life where you will be able to listen to indie and
alternative music.
Chasing
Indie
A mixture of shopping during the day but at
night the club opens. An industrial look effect.

Here you will find a wide variety of indie
music also alternative tunes spun by DJs across the world. Nice club small but
yet inviting.
Unknown Pleasures: Transmission Club
Here you will find indie
to alternative music as well as other genre such as new wave and of course punk
or as they call it post punk. Underground effect club with a twist.
Reading the description
for the club is quiet interesting as I have never thought of seen these two
concepts mixed together gallery, space and also indie music, so will copy it
here for you to read also
“Established by Lux Chiantelle in 2012, the gallery and
hangout known as Suntory Time had an instant following among cult art
worshipers and fine art aficionados. While the space is relaxing and fun, the
focus is on the art. Currently providing a regular music event, "Suntory
Saturday Nights," with a rotating schedule of the grid's best DJ's
spinning everyone's favorite indie music.
Come join them every Saturday night, 7-9 p.m. (Pacific) or stop by any time.”
The club is in the
corner of the gallery which may sound small but is set out fine enough space to
hold a small gathering of listeners.
AAI <)))
The club has been
decorated in bright colors and is a small but yet again another inviting club.
Here you will find:
AAI - An Alternative
Indie Club...
Aurally Atmospheric
Indie
Abandoned Abased Indie
Abnormal Abolished Indie
Abound Above Indie
Abrasive Absolute Indie.
It is an invite only
group with a good number of residents in Second Life who are members around 625
members.
Overall the Indie scene
in Second Life is here to stay with such a large number of residents being
members of indie club groups or attending clubs playing indie music. Indie has
evolved threw out the years and I am sure as indie evolves Second Life will be
not far behind.
